The Vintage Collection The Mandalorian’s N-1 Starfighter is a remarkable release. The all-new addition to the line has features and details that set a new standard for a mid-size-range vehicle. However, what isn’t so mid-size is its MSRP. That said, Hasbro went above and beyond to create an authentic, screen-accurate, and gorgeous vehicle to complement the action figures they make from The Mandalorian. (more….)

German Star Wars collecting site Starwarscollector.de posted a photo of the upcoming Galaxy of Adventures “First Order Driver & Treadspeeder” toy on their homepage earlier today! This set was spotted at Meijer in the US and is supposed to get released on Triple Force Friday.
The toy has an action feature, at the push of a putton the FO Driver is thrown off the speeder and some parts come off. Price will be $19.99 in the US and 29.99 euros in Germany. What do you think of this set? $19.99 for one 5 inch figure and a vehicle seem like a good deal when you consider that a single Black Series figure is also $19.99. Will you add the toy to your collection? Do you think kids will want this set?

We’re still trying to get through BIG VEHICLE WEEK. There have been some great interruptions like the SDCC exclusives and the new The Vintage Collection items, but it’s time to get back to it. Let’s pick up where we left off with the Imperial AT-AT Walker (Electronic) vehicle. In 1997/1998, it was one of the greatest toys ever. And it still has charm today. With two pack-in figures including an AT-AT Driver and AT-AT Commander along with fantastic light-up features and movie-accurate sound effects, it took collectors by storm.

It’s hard to believe how awesome 1998’s The Power Of The Force “2” [Green/Freeze Frame] Luke Skywalker’s Red Five X-wing Fighter Electronic Power F/X vehicle is and how well it holds up over 20 years later! It was the first modern “larger scale” X-wing Fighter, and it came with a dozen movie lines and sound effects in addition to beautiful light-up features. It also has some imperfections, but will you care? Relive this beauty all over again in our Research Droids Reviews today!
